Hibs players offer support to Arsenal youngster Saka

Hibernian have shown solidarity for Arsenal star Bukayo Saka ahead of their preseason friendly on Tuesday.

The Scottish side won 2-1 at Easter Road as Arsenal kicked off their preseason campaign.

Saka didn't play in the game after competing for England at Euro 2020.

Within hours Saka was forced to delete his Instagram account after receiving racist abuse.
